Should Royal Family Chase Booby Lawsuit?

Having photos of your nude boobs splashed across European tabloids is the stuff nightmares are made of, especially if you don’t look like Kate Middleton. It turns out it was Middleton who had photos of her boobies published for the world to behold.

The Dutchess of Cambridge was sunbathing topless on the terrace of a private home in France when a freelance paparazzo snapped photos of her from the street. Silvio Berlusconi, who owns tabloids in France and Italy, published the photos in the French magazine Closer. The Royal Family responded by filing a lawsuit but not before many people, including Breitbart News‘ Dan Riehl, got an eyeful.

Closer ran the photos online last week but pulled them down on Friday without explanation and on Tuesday a French court ordered the magazine to hand over the photos .

Berlusconi’s Italian magazine Chi, however, published them shortly after. So, they’re still available. Besides, it’s the Internet. This stuff never goes away.

There’s no news yet on whether the family plans on suing the Italian magazine for running the tata shots.

But what do you think? Should Middleton continue in her effort to stamp out the booby photos? Vote in our Fish Poll. We’ll run the results tomorrow.
